This Torp regen/reverse thumb throttle (thumb lever input) is compatible with Torp TC500 and Torp TC1000 motor controllers (gen 1.X and gen 2.X) installed on Sur-Ron Light Bee, Sur-Ron Ultra Bee, and Talaria e-moto builds.
It works as a separate controller input device for regenerative braking (regenerative braking) control and reverse (reverse) activation through the Torp controller. It is not the main forward-drive throttle, and it does not replace your primary twist throttle.
The wiring loom (wiring harness) is not included with this product. Delivery from our e-shop to your door typically takes 3–5 days, which helps you add this Torp input quickly to the Torp TC ecosystem (Torp TC ecosystem).
Benefits and use-case highlights
- Regen control input – the thumb lever sends a command to the Torp controller to engage regenerative braking (regen).
- Reverse activation input – the same thumb input can be used to enable reverse (reverse) when configured in the Torp controller.
- Torp TC controller compatibility – works with TC500 and TC1000 in gen 1.X and gen 2.X versions.
- Dedicated secondary control – this is not a power throttle for forward acceleration, so the function stays separate from the main throttle.
- Designed for Sur-Ron and Talaria builds – commonly used on Sur-Ron Light Bee, Sur-Ron Ultra Bee, and Talaria e-moto fitted with Torp TC controllers.
- Clear wiring expectation – the wiring loom (wiring harness) is not included, so you can plan the correct harness before installation.
- Sur-Ron harness connector note – Sur-Ron users with a 3- or 4-connector controller harness need a replacement 5-connector wiring loom.
- MX5 kit exception – Talaria MX5 controller kits typically include this thumb lever in the box, so it is often not needed separately.
Who is this for?
This Torp regen/reverse thumb throttle is for riders running a Torp motor controller (motor controller) who want handlebar control (handlebar control) over regenerative braking and reverse. It is built to function as a separate input device that the controller reads as a regen or reverse command.
Compatible Torp controllers include: TC1000 gen 1.X, TC500 gen 1.X, TC1000 gen 2.X, and TC500 gen 2.X. Typical e-moto platforms include Sur-Ron Light Bee, Sur-Ron Ultra Bee, and Talaria models using those Torp TC controllers.
The Sur-Ron connector requirement matters when your Sur-Ron controller wiring harness has 3 or 4 connectors. In that case, a 5-connector wiring loom is required. This 5-connector note does not apply to Talaria MX3 and Talaria MX4 users.

Why choose this Torp thumb input?
This Torp regen/reverse thumb throttle is purpose-specific hardware for Torp TC controller users. The Torp controller treats it as a dedicated input for regen or reverse, which keeps those functions separate from the main forward throttle.
It is also a practical choice when you need a clear, handlebar-mounted command for regenerative braking (regen) and reverse. It integrates into Torp TC500 and TC1000 setups across both gen 1.X and gen 2.X, which helps standardize controls across different builds.
Finally, the listing is explicit about what you will and will not receive. The wiring loom is not included, and Sur-Ron users can identify whether they must move to a 5-connector harness when their current loom has 3 or 4 connectors.
FAQ
Which controllers is this Torp thumb throttle compatible with?
- Compatible with Torp TC500 and Torp TC1000 controllers.
- Works with both gen 1.X and gen 2.X controller generations.
Does it fit Sur-Ron Light Bee and Sur-Ron Ultra Bee builds?
- Yes, it is used on Sur-Ron Light Bee and Sur-Ron Ultra Bee when those bikes run Torp TC500/TC1000 controllers.
- If your Sur-Ron controller harness has 3 or 4 connectors, you will need a 5-connector wiring loom.
Is this the main throttle for forward riding?
- No, it is not the primary forward-drive throttle.
- It is a separate controller input used for regen (regenerative braking) or reverse (reverse) commands.
What functions can I control with this thumb lever?
- It can command regenerative braking through the Torp controller.
- It can also be used for reverse when reverse is configured in the Torp controller.
Is a wiring loom included in the box?
- No, the wiring loom (wiring harness) is not included with this product.
Do Talaria MX3 or MX4 riders need the 5-connector Sur-Ron wiring loom?
- No, the 5-connector wiring loom requirement does not apply to Talaria MX3 or Talaria MX4 users.
Do I need this if I have a Talaria MX5 controller kit?
- Usually not, because Talaria MX5 controller kits typically include this thumb lever in the package.
This Torp regen/reverse thumb throttle adds a dedicated handlebar input for Torp TC controller features, with clear notes on wiring loom requirements and Sur-Ron connector counts.
